I have a question, fellow bowlaz! I work in a small advertising agency in Oslo, Norway, and we struggle to get in contact with international ad media such as Adweek (Ad Freak) and Ad Age whenever we want to show off our creative work. Does anyone of you have a way in, or tips on how we can get in contact with media outlets like these? Cheers

Free work should be seen as a red flag.
I did spec work as part of an interview recently but it was paid. I would not have done it if it wasn’t.
Chance to show off! I had to do this. Knock it out of the park and get hired!
Yup, and I’m employed, paid well, and on great brands and teams. My can-do attitude has made me an asset that survived many layoffs and mergers.
Point them to a similar project on your website and explain your thinking/role, basically answering their questions without doing free work.
Give them your freelance rate for the spec task. Like someone said unpaid work is a red flag.
It’s a hypothetical brief to test thinking. But also for a leadership level and after multiple rounds of interviews
They should be able to see the way you think through your portfolio.
